🤔 In reality, I am happy to have entered a market that is strongly correcting.
〽️ Entered early January at the ATH, and gradually investing my capital (not a "no brain" DCA but intelligently buying the dips), I manage to lower my average cost with each purchase and limit my losses.
💡 In order to further reduce my average cost, I also do not hesitate to sell part of my cryptos at each rebound to buy back at each dip, without having to inject new capital (realizing partial profits of 4 to 5% even in a correcting market).
✅️ Result? A portfolio down about -15% while the market has corrected by 30% on $BTC and much more on the altcoins $ETH $SOL , some altcoins losing up to 60-70%.
🤗 If I had entered a bullish market, it would have been very difficult to invest my capital knowing that my average cost increases with each purchase, and I would also have had difficulties selling knowing that I risk buying back at a higher price the following week if it continues to rise.
🤪 Ultimately, it is psychologically much easier to enter a correcting market than a bullish market, in my case.
⚠️ This assumes that you do not need your capital immediately, otherwise obviously, you will incur losses. It also implies not investing everything at once but gradually.
Honestly, I'm not going to go as far as to say that technical analysis is useless, but it is almost in these types of markets.
90% of the technical analyses I've seen so far (Binance Square, YouTubers, media) have proven to be wrong in recent months. And those who were right were lucky (because at other times they were wrong). Technical analyses are more likely to mislead you than to help you make money, in addition to wasting your time. Why do you think under each analysis it says "this is not an investment recommendation?" - Because no one is sure of anything in reality.
The reality is that there is very little rationality in these types of markets, where each movement is the combined result of emotions, news, and movements of large investors.
The true way to land on your feet here and make profits is to adopt an approach that is not based on emotions and is simply mathematical: DCA, averaging down, buying during dips - in stages - to accumulate, selling during rises - in stages - to take profits, making a tracking spreadsheet with formulas to track every expense and every purchase. No other approach guarantees medium and long-term profits like this one. Otherwise, it's just luck.
Why do you think a large number of mathematicians end up being offered trading positions in major financial institutions?
Trump says that Europe benefits from the United States, but in reality, it is the opposite.
Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, for the tech giants; McDonald's, Starbucks, etc. for others, all have their headquarters in Dublin and pay less than 8% in taxes, even 1% in some cases thanks to tax optimization strategies, while domestic companies often pay 30%.
US multinationals have been profiting off European citizens for far too many years, preventing the emergence of any competition.
Just look at Russia or China where other national giants have been able to emerge due to the absence of American giants.
I started investing in cryptos at the peak of mid-January 2025. Unfavorable period, you might say? Indeed. Since then, I've taken two significant downturns, and the value of my assets should have decreased by about 30% since the peak of mid-January. But in the end: the value of my assets has only decreased by 10%, which allows me to remain calm even during crash periods. Here's how:
- No long or short positions. Only Spot.
- No meme projects. Only solid coins with several years of existence.
- Invest using DCA to smooth the average price.
- Do not blindly apply the DCA technique, but adapt it to the dips. Don't hesitate to delay the investment by a few days if we are at a local peak.
- Use 80% of your portfolio to earn and the remaining 20% for inter or intra-day trading. Take advantage of daily fluctuations to gain +3 to +5% on trades. By doing this repeatedly, we continue to lower the average price (in addition to the DCA method).
- Always keep a small reserve in Fiat to be reactive during dips.
- Create a tracking sheet (Excel or other), customized, it will be easier than using only Binance.
- Do not let yourself be overcome by panic or FOMO! Do not listen to what 90% of the posts on Binance Square say... Stick to your plan. Downturns are an opportunity to lower your average purchase price. And only invest money that you do not need in your everyday life.
- No technical analysis! They have all proven to be wrong in recent weeks. A mathematical strategy is more effective.
I am now ready for the next rally and the longer time goes by, the more ready I will be!
(This is not an investment recommendation and you are solely responsible for how you place your money. This is just my way of seeing things and I hope it can help you!)
A stop loss is still a loss. With serious coins, you don't need one. Then buy back at the low to lower your average price, and sell when it bounces.

SURVIVE
One of the biggest mistakes people make when investing in crypto is treating it like an “active game” when it’s actually meant to be played passively (for the most part).
Take the recent price action, for example.
Bitcoin has been chopping in the same range for weeks.
Most Alts?
After the big drop, they have been just sitting at the same levels, waiting for the market to pick a clear direction.
The ones who know how to play this game understand that these boring periods are golden opportunities:
> Plan future moves.
> Map out possible scenarios.
> Reflect on past mistakes.
> Refine your craft.
They do all that while limiting their moves in the market.
Sure, they might rotate some capital or slightly adjust position sizes.
But they don’t mess around much, because they know that waiting is a core skill in investing—and overtrading (especially when there isn’t a clear market trend) is a recipe for disaster.
On the other hand, the rookies are impatient.
They feel like they need to do something every day to be successful.
So what do they do?
> Sell strong projects that aren’t moving for new shiny coins that are pumping (usually buying the top).
> Panic sell cause they see bunch of morons posting doomsday charts.
> FOMO into random crappy coins because of a viral thread at 2 AM.
> Chase every new narrative like headless chickens.
> Focus all their attention to the 1H charts while completely ignoring the bigger picture.
Etc.
Why?
Because they haven’t realized one simple truth:
In investing, boredom is where the money is made.
The ones who can sit on their hands during times like these, the ones who resist the urge to constantly messing with their portfolios every five minutes—are usually the ones who walk away with life-changing profits.
Like, look at the pros.
They don’t scalp every 5-minute candle or jump on every new “100x narrative.”
They position themselves early, craft a plan, and then do the hardest thing of all:
They wait.
> Boring now.
> Euphoric later.
That’s the game.
So, next time you feel that itch to do something just for the sake of it, while the market isn’t giving you any clear signal:
> Take a breath.
> Close your charts.
> Zoom out.
And remind yourself:
Patience pays more than action in this industry.
The big moves are coming.
But if you keep overtrading, you’ll be out of the game before they arrive.
